Monday Made It ~ Cloze Paragraphs

I love Mondays when I can link up with a Monday Made It with Tara from 4th Grade Frolics!

I finally finished a project I started on last September and have been adding to.  It has been a labor of love!  I am most excited because I got it ready just in time for the Back to School TPT Sale!

My students need a lot of work with using context clues, especially as part of an assessment our school uses.  I created this set of cloze passages to help my students succeed with context clues, critical thinking, and the assessments.

The set includes a page of 4 cloze passages for each month of the year, two fiction and two nonfiction. The answer key for each month follows each month's page.

My students did these as a warm up once a week to help them think about and use those context clues.  They use a highlighter to choose their answer, and then we go over them together.  When we go over them, they use a pencil to check their answers.  Here is my January example.

If you want to take a chance and use it, the preview is the August page with answer key.  Just click {here} to check it out!  If you like it, feel free to purchase it!  It is on sale through Wednesday for 20% off plus the extra 10% with the code BTS14.   What a deal!
